JOE LIEBERMAN IS A VILE SCUMBAG

[Beetwasher]

Ok, I've made no bones about my feelings for Lieberman over the last couple of years, but this vicious last-minute smear of Lamont really rankles me. Lieberman's website went down because he only pays $15 for a server he shares w/ 71 other websites. They are ALL down because of traffic.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/8/8/153827/3493

This smear is nothing more than a desperate, unhinged act of a vicious, vile despicable piece of shit. Lieberman could not go out gracefully. Instead, he has to launch this vile smear on Ned in order to give him an excuse to either contest the results or run indy, or to take down Lamont w/ him. He wants to take the party down w/ him.

Will Joe apologize for the vicious and admittedly baseless attack on Lamont?(Yes, his campaign ADMITS they have no evidence it was Lamont, or even that it was a hack). Or will Joe lose and go out as the classless piece of shit he is, letting these allegations stand? We were right about Joe all along. He's a despicable piece of shit.

If only he fought as hard in 2000. If only he debated Cheney as viciously as he debated Lamont. Why is it that Joe views Dems as more of an enemy to him than the Repubs that are ruining this country? Why does he not go after Bushco. w/ the same zeal that he goes after people in his own party? Why is he such a fucking douchebag?

Joe Lieberman, ultimate scumbag. That will be his political epitaph and rightfully so.

1. Blame his behavior on the Ned-mentum! Thats all

I have to say.

[senseandsensibility]

2. Your last paragraph explains what is really

so disgusting about Joey, IMHO. He is a loser.

[mhatrw]

34. Joe's Lamont attack website THAT SHARES THE SAME IP ADDRESS

is still working just fine:

3. Vile scumbag? Yeah. Ultimate scumbag? Not sure.

I mean there's some tough competition in the scumbag division. You throw Cheney and Bush, Rove and Limbaugh, Coulter and Rumsfeld, in the mix, and I don't know if Joe can take them. I'm sure he'll make a good showing, but it's pretty hard to be the ultimate scumbag.

4. Well He's Not #1 Scumbag

Maybe I should say he's "an" ultimate scumbag. There may be an "ultimate scumbag" for several different categories of "scumbag" and then one, overall "#1 scumbag". :evilgrin:

[mcscajun]

5. It's a bit like the Westminster Dog Show.

Best of Breed
Best of Show

[Beetwasher]

6. Right!

Joe is the "ultimate scumbag" of the Dem Senator "breed".

[bryant69]

11. I'd buy that.

Not nearly as stiff a competition in that.

[saltpoint]

20. I see the distinction, but then I think of Zell Miller.

And Zell trumps just about everybody.

For the record, I'm hoping for a Lamont win -- a big one -- this evening in CT. I have really appreciated CT DUers' posts on this primary race.

[Beetwasher]

21. True

Zell was the worst, but he's no longer in the Senate!

[saltpoint]

22. True, he's not in there anymore. Thank god. I doubt if any of us

will miss him!

[Beetwasher]

23. Kick

Just to annoy those offended by my post! :evilgrin:

[Elidor]

29. LMAO!

You're crackin' me up, man! :thumbsup:

[Clark2008]

27. And he's been voting Republican for the last couple of cycles,

so he's really no longer anything resembling a Democrat.

[Critters2]

24. He conforms to the standard

quite nicely

[Telly Savalas]

31. Ultimate scumbag? Kinda sounds like a reality TV show.

Maybe Rumsfeld could host it after he gets fired.

[me b zola]

45. Survivor, Scumbag Island

The alliences would pre-emptively attack each other in a series of battles. No one leaves alive--except the ultimate suvivor of scumbag island who after winning is cast into the sea as chum. :D

[Hubert Flottz]

7. Joe never even bitched while the GOP hacked the last three

national elections. He was the first democrat in Washington to tell Al Gore on TV, to give up on the Florida recount. And he kisses Bush!

[novalib]

8. WHY Do You Insist on INSULTING....

Why in the world do you insist on insulting scumbags everywhere?

[Hubert Flottz]

10. I like Scumbags!

I just don't like sniveling, wormy scumbags!

If it wasn't for scumbags we'd only have about 20 democratic senators.

[lebkuchen]

25. Why Zell Miller and not Lieberman as keynote at the 2004 NRC?

At least we know where Lieberman will be come Sept. 1 - 4, 2008!

[Hubert Flottz]

28. Another rosegarden democrat bites the dust.

He made his bed!

[lebkuchen]

52. Somebody I gave money to actually won? YES!

Who else with a chance to win needs $? Any suggestions?

This is great news to wake up to. I love seeing people kicked out of what they consider their personal fiefdom.

[Hubert Flottz]

53. Joey the Lips looked mighty upbeat, to be so beat up.

I don't even think he's admitted to himself that he lost! Maybe he's waiting for the SCOTUS to tell him he's fired. He was proud to be running as an Inde he said. I hope how soon he gives shrub that last big sloppy freedom smooch and rides off in the sunsuit forever! Joey the Lips will GO DOWN in history, as another total Zellout.

Well...there's always his PNAC membership...now he can at least come out of the closet and fess up to that.

[lebkuchen]

55. democracy...it's a bitch, ain't it?

It's an enjoyable process when it's not tampered with.

[TwentyFive]

58. Joey the Lips? I love it. He is a low level Mafia guy

within the bush crime family.

[KoKo]

9. It was MSNBC who HYPED the story for Karl Rove! They were on it

and repeated it over and over trying to make it sound like the Lamont campaign hacked the site. Chris Matthews was there badgering Lamont's Campaign Chair about when Lamont would make a statement about "dirty tactics."

MSNBC was taking part in an election for one side. They should be sued. Tampering with elections. But, of course they get away with it and will until we get some Dems in with spine who will make the Media and Fairness one of their first issues. Without a media who gives equal time...our Democracy will continue to spiral down a black hole.

[Occulus]

14. When we retake the government we need a media bias commission

Reinstate the fairness doctrine.

We also need to look at revoking corporate personhood, but that's a whole other- although related- ball of wax.

[KoKo]

35. yes...agree with you "Fairness Doctrine" and Revoke Media "personhood"

it has no place in AMERICA and I don't think the Constitution or Bill of Rights would approve of it...and it was a good document until the Corporatists and the "Military/Industrial Complex" that Eisenhower warned about TOOK that as their BIBLE along with the FUNDIES who support them.

Amazing confluence between the NeoCons/Military Industrial/and the Fundie Religious isn't it? They were "oh so clever weren't they putting together that "COALITION OF THE DEPRAVED."

OUR TIME WILL COME...IF WE MAKE IT HAPPEN...it will come..

I endorse and concur with Media Fairness being a top priority, along with the personhood issue, too.

12. Good grief, Beetwasher! Don't you know that by name calling

you are bringing about the end of the Republic! :sarcasm:

[Beetwasher]

15. Won't Someone Please Think of the Children!!??

:evilgrin:

[Rex]

17. LOL

:rofl:

[guinivere]

32. They won't. Why, you ask. Too busy hating America11!!

I'm series! They hate American children.

[saltpoint]

13. I don't think Joe is in Donald Segretti's league, or Chuck Colson's,

or Lee Atwater's.

He's not mean-spirited enough to be purely Machiavellian. He's desperate and his campaign knows it faces an unhappy headline in tomorrow's newspapers if polls showing Lamont leading are correct.

The Connecticut workers for Lamont are the ones doing the hard work and the canvassing and the envelope-stuffing, etc. I say hats off to them. I'm rooting for their guy to win this primary this evening.

[Beetwasher]

18. See Post #6

:evilgrin:

I'd say you're right, but it's not for lack of trying on his part!

[Tace]

16. This Also Shows The Weaknesses Of Older Age In These Times

I understand how Lieberman could not have the slightest clue about web sites and how they work. I'll bet every single person reading this post has thought they've been hacked at one time or another -- just to find out it was some technical issue we didn't understand.

And, many of us have had the humiliating experience of accusing someone of stealing something from us... only to find that we had misplaced it. {It's impossible to repair such a hasty mistake.)

I'm astounded he doesn't have hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of webmasters, servers, etc., to manage his web efforts.

That said, what other parts of the modern world does Lieberman not understand -- only because he's in his 60's (I'm guessing). I'm reminded of when Poppy went into a grocery store for a photo-op and marveled at the "new technology" of checkout scanners. The only thing was, at the time, 99 percent of the rest of the country had seen cashiers using checkout scanners for 10 years. It showed that even the president of the United States can be out of touch, and even raised the issue of whether being president put him more out of touch with the daily life of most Americans.

I won't be sorry if Lieberman looses. Either way, after Dean's success with web campaigning, and this, politicians will doubtlessly be even more interested in "the internets."

[Critters2]

43. Lots of seniors use the 'net all the time

This is about politics.

[RebelOne]

54. Excuse me, but I am 67 and I have been using

the Internet for the past 10 years. So age has nothing to do with it.

[Critters2]

57. My point exactly

Thank you

[Eurobabe]

19. Didn't fucking like Lieberdweeb in 2000, but voted for Gore

Didn't like him in 2004, and don't like him in 2006.

See ya Joe, don't let the door knob hit'cha...

[Imagevision]

26. Liberman recently retracted blaming lamont for web-site hack

[Egnever]

30. Well much as I think joe sucks

Why has no one bothered to see if any of the other sites are actually down?

I checked a couple and they were actually not down but seemed to be working just fine. So the whole theory of the bandwith being used up seems to be false.
I would love to cheer with everyone but imho KOS is kinda making itself look like an ass with this theory when anyone can check their list and see that these sights clearly are not all down.

Try them for yourself

[Guy Fawkes]

33. *Someone* needs to stop treating the Internets like a dump truck!

Jeez, everyone knows it's a series of tubes! Joe Lieberman just had to dump all his crap into the Internet, and it got all clogged.

[Melynn]

37. Liberman is just setting up excuse to run as an Independent

Liberman can say, "I only lost by 4 points on election day and if my website was up, I could have gotten out my vote...blah,blah,blah".

[Beetwasher]

38. A KICK BECAUSE THE VILE SCUMBAG IS RUNNING INDY

Vile, disgusting, destructive piece of shit. God, what a fucking vile, pathetic douchebag.

[WildEyedLiberal]

48. Please don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel

:evilgrin:

[fujiyama]

39. Here comes a stream of expletives:

Joe Lieberman, you are a ratfuck, ass hole, fucktard, bastard, son of a bitch!!!

%$^#$%^@%%^&(&&^

Wow, he really is terrible.

[Beetwasher]

40. I Expected The Worst of Him, And I Was Not Disappointed

n/t

[countingbluecars]

41. Listening to his "concession speech"

I now totally agree-he is a vile scumbag!

[Beetwasher]

42. I Knew He Would Do This

But knowing doesn't make me less angry.

[Critters2]

44. My dog went and hid in her crate

I had to go and calmly explain that when I screamed "YOU FUCKHEAD! YOU FUCKING FUCKHEAD!" I meant the bad man on the TV.

[saigon68]

46. HE IS BUSH'S POODLE

[Protagoras]

47. HE is the argument against business as usual.

He IS the argument for term limits. He feels way too entitled and doesn't give a damn what the people have said. He is OWED HIS SEAT AND HIS MONEY AND DAMN ANYONE WHO WON"T GIVE IT TO HIM.

Think he fits in nicely with all the other corporate neocon whores he likes kissing.

[L0oniX]

49. Lieberman is an ASS CARROT

:grr: :grr: :grr:

[LibertyorDeath]

50. You're to kind !

but it's a good start :)

[samsingh]

51. yes joe is

[quiet.american]

56. Lieberman's "when it's not hacked" cost him last shred of credibility.

He knowingly perpetuated the myth, the lie, the misconception that his website had been interfered with by Lamont supporters and now pays the price with the last paper-thin shred of credibility he may have had left.
